Elena Pizzeria offers its clientele an upscale Italian dining experience that will leave you feeling like you’ve just had your Sunday brunch at Nonna and Nono's!
Walking into Elena, you will be greeted by warm tones, a warm staff and a sleek bar. But don’t let the laid-back contemporary vibes fool you; the food here offers you an elegance that arguably can only be found in Italy!
The restaurant offers you the option to dine indoors, outdoors (in the summer) or benefit from the take out counter as well.
Behind the menu at Elena, is Chef Janice Tiefenbach. With the extensive and aromatic menu that Elena offers, Chef Janice’s talent for Italian cuisine is undeniable.
The antipasti list is something straight out of Italy. Our recommendation is the Polpette and the Kale Cesar – you cannot go wrong with these two!
If you are looking for fresh authentic Italian Pizza, then you must try one of the eight different Italian styled pizzas Elena offers, that will surely cater to everyone's tastes.
For all our pasta lovers, make sure you try the Mafalda al Ragu – it will have you asking for seconds! (Unfortunately, this is not Nonna’s house so no, that is not an option!)
From the Dolci menu, the homemade cannoli will make you feel like you are on a trattoria in Italy.
Wine is the beverage of concentration (we would expect this of an Italian restaurant nonetheless) with a carefully curated wine list to pair with all the different food offerings at Elena. In addition to wine, the restaurant offers aperitives, beer, ciders, digestives and several non-alcoholic options.
All in all, Elena is our go-to when it comes to Italian dining in Montreal, and for good reason.
A tip? You can book online or directly on their Instagram page. If they are sold out, then try their pick-up option! Elena also has their own swag boutique, so whether you are waiting for your order to be ready, or arrive early for your meal, be sure to check it out and grab some Elena Merchandise!
